If I Fix You by Abigail Johnson

If I Fix You

by Abigail Johnson

Some things are easy to fix...but are some meant to stay broken?

When sixteen-year-old Jill Whitaker's mom walks out-with a sticky note as a goodbye - only Jill knows the real reason she's gone. But how can she tell her father? Jill can hardly believe the truth herself. Suddenly, the girl who likes to fix things - cars, relationships, romances, people - is all broken up. It used to be that her best friend/secret crush, Sean Addison, could make her smile in seconds. But not anymore. They don't even talk.

With nothing making sense, Jill tries to pick up the pieces of her life. When a new guy moves in next door - intense, seriously cute, but with scars that he thinks don't show - Jill finds herself trying to make things better for Daniel. But over one long, hot Arizona summer, she realises she can't fix anyone's life until she fixes her own. And she knows just where to start...

Above me, a falling star shot across the sky. Except it wasn’t a star. It was a piece of rock burning up as it entered Earth’s atmosphere. It was beautiful as it flared bright against the night and died. But it was too hot to be thinking about anything burning up, even beautiful things.


— Loved the prose and the compelling familial story lines, but I felt like the book focused too much on the meh love triangle. Shame.
